Gargoyle/Syslog-ng loglevel

[jaykumar2001]

I was able to successfully install syslog-ng3 on Gargoyle TPlink WR1043ND and logging to remote syslog running on my Debian home server.

Installation:

Code: Select all

opkg install syslog-ng3

and missing dependency, syslog-ng won't start without it

opkg install libdbi

Configuration: Edit syslog-ng.conf

Code: Select all

root@Gargoyle:~# cat /etc/syslog-ng.conf
@version:3.0

options {
        chain_hostnames(no);
        create_dirs(yes);
        flush_lines(0);
        keep_hostname(yes);
        log_fifo_size(256);
        log_msg_size(1024);
        stats_freq(0);
        flush_lines(0);
        use_fqdn(no);
};

source src {
        internal();
        unix-stream("/dev/log");
};

source net {
        udp(ip(0.0.0.0) port(514));
};

source kernel {
        file("/proc/kmsg" program_override("kernel"));
};

destination messages {
        file("/var/log/messages");
};
destination d_udp { udp("192.168.0.113" port(514)); };
log {
        source(src);
        source(net);
        source(kernel);
        destination(d_udp);
#       destination(messages);
};

I am using my Debian home server and syslog server, here are the relevant lines from syslog server config

Code: Select all

destination routermsg { file("/var/log/router.log"); };
filter f_router { host(192.168.0.1); };
log { source(remoteudp); filter(f_router); destination(routermsg); };

Now I want to increase the loglevel to the point where it would log everything I see in "logread" and "dmesg"

I have already set the conloglevel to 5

Code: Select all

system.@system[0].conloglevel=5
uci commit
reboot

Is this correct? Or do it need to edit syslog-ng.conf?

You do not need all this...
All you need to do, to stock gargoyle is this:

Plain an simple (of course change the IP address to the address of your server).
